How do you post pictures?

(1/2) > >>

The cranky hermit:
Let's say I have a mock-up picture of my future CP. How do I post it, so that it's visible in the message body?

Method #1:
Click on "Help" up at the top  ;)
Upload your picture to your webspace, and then image link by putting
{img}http://www.mywebspace.com/mypicture.jpg{/img}
in the body of your post (but replace the curly braces with square braces).

Method #2:
Use the "Attach" function and upload it straight to BYOAC's webspace.

FWIW in mozilla (probably 1.0 or 1.1) I can browse, and select my local file, but can never "attach" or upload it.... *shrug*

I had problems posting when the image was too large.

Try resizing the picture to 640x480 Jpeg or PNG. The file size will be smaller, and you won't piss people off (larger images stretch the width of the entire thread).

That'd be fine.. except there is no attach button (i.e. no way the boards scripts could have any idea how big my image is) I can browse, select an image but not ....uhmph... post it.

*shrug*  unless other people are having a different problem than I am...  (Although i'm more than capable/able to upload to my own server and do some phpbb url /img linkage... In some cases it's nice to do the attachment thing)
